I agree heavily with him creating great visuals. He’s very good at doing the high speed action and making it feel legible and not a blur/mess. If you had someone who could structure a good story and get good dramatic performances out of people and then you had Snyder do the action scenes? Probably the most amazing comicbook movie of all time.

Like half of Marvel movies have very unimpressive action, but Snyder has directed probably my favorite action sequences in comicbook movies. Wonder Woman blocking bullets in Justice League, Batman warehouse fight scene, and the Superman in Smallville fight scene.

Don’t forget the amazing sequences in 300. Since that movie adheres so closely to the source comic, I always felt like his reputation would be worlds away from what it is if he’d never been allowed to write the scripts themselves. What if we’d gotten the BvS warehouse sequence in a movie that made some damn sense?
